MarketAxess Holdings Inc. and Moment announced the launch of a new interface that gives large wealth managers and registered investment advisors streamlined access to MarketAxess?s institutional liquidity and pricing directly on the Moment platform. Moment?s clients will now have access to liquidity from MarketAxess? global network of more than 2,100 institutional investors and dealers.

Moment?s platform seamlessly integrates retail order-driven markets with the traditional institutional RFQ market, enabling access to institutional liquidity. Institutional investors in fixed-income markets have historically benefitted from access to deeper liquidity and higher quality pricing. By partnering with Moment, MarketAxess is extending that institutional liquidity to retail investors, helping improve execution quality and outcomes for end investors.

This is an important step toward reducing the bifurcation between retail and institutional fixed-income markets.
